What problem does it solve?

The Codebase Spec Extractor converts existing codebases into complete, implementable engineering specifications that enable replication without access to the original source code, even when the target stack differs.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Inventory and analyze a repository to identify architecture, data models, dependencies, and data flows.
  • Generate a skeleton, inventory, and verification workflow so teams can reproduce behavior from documentation alone.
  • Ideal for migration planning, documenting legacy systems, onboarding new engineers, and cross-stack knowledge transfer.

Quick Start

  1. Scan a project: bash scripts/discover_project.sh /path/to/project > discovery.md
  2. Build an element inventory: bash scripts/inventory_elements.sh /path/to/project > inventory.md
  3. Create a spec skeleton: bash scripts/generate_skeleton.sh spec
